This wasn't Tom Philpott's point, but I wonder, in this very interesting chart, how foods are classified. Why are nuts 'proteins' rather than fats? Do nuts have that much more protein than grains? The take away, in any case, is that we eat a lot of crap.

This anti-tiger-mom piece is unremarkable, but I enjoyed this part:
[Kids] need to succeed for their own benefit, not to prove that their parents are successful. It’s sheer narcissism to believe that your child’s every success and failure is a reflection of your worth. Get over yourself.
Is anyone else horrified at how many (celebrity) women are photographed at the beach and denounced as fat?

I think the distinction is that the fats in nuts are natural, in contrast to the "added fats" category, which is defined as fats added by food processing companies (ick). What a great (but, of course, also sad) visual!
